It's a film that I think is a very faithful adaptation to the original. Of course it wasn't going to measure up to the original but I think Linklater and Thornton knew that and decided to do their own spin and have fun with it. I had fun with it.

@J.D. LAFRANCE-I knew it was going to be a step down from the films Linklater was doing at that time but he at least made it enjoyable. Sure, Thornton was playing a version of Bad Santa but at least he looked like he was having some fun. A bad Linklater film is still better than most movies these days.
